What bias would they have that would be reliably backed up by them?

('Scandanavians are the best employees' perhaps, based on this thread..! But that aside.)

"Another INTP wouldn't fit in the team" is a great excuse for "I don't like this person". "This woman only has an IQ of 103" replaces "I don't want to hire her because she wants babies".

Hiring is hard. People are complicated. Trying to reduce them a couple of letters or a number is hogwash.

To be clear I agree with 'hogwash', I just think it's such random unreliable nonsense that you couldn't rely on it to 'objectively' (so you might claim) show the same correct outcome as your beliefs. Because it would just be all over the place.
